Chelsea Clinton: We Must Protect The Children On The Internet
Adam Singer shows us a fool and tasteless opinion article written by CNN Chelsea Clinton (daughter of Bill) and James Steyer (founder of Common Sense Media chief, an operation that was good, but lately has known to be anti-internet) Internet is entitled harm children? Only leading to a ridiculous question gives an idea of ??how it is problematic to the entire room. It is written as if it was not aware of this "debate" has lasted for centuries. Take, for example:
We urgently need a public conversation in our country between the main stakeholders: parents, educators, technology innovators, politicians and young people themselves. The dialogue should focus on forms of social media and technology allow our children to express their privacy before understand what privacy is and why it is important for all of us. We also need to discuss how social media can help encourage children to find their voice, find your purpose and could create the technological revolution is coming.
All adults know that adolescence is a critical period for exploration and experimentation with identity. However, this important development phase can be significantly distorted when this identity experimentation, but personal and private, is continuously displayed on a digital recording of the view.
Every few months, we see essentially the same ad in a certain darkness peering worried person-of-importance that seems to think that just discovered the Internet. Suddenly, this person realizes that, you know what, not everything on the Internet is appropriate for children, and then, suddenly, "we need to have a conversation. 'You know what? This conversation lasted for centuries, and there are many excellent research that is being done. Do not have a conversation in a patronizing fool. What are you going to talk to investigators that Danah Boyd, who made a fantastic work in space implies (* sigh *!) Really go talk to the kids and see how they use the Internet, rather than the pouty face concerned the need for a "conversation".
Worse, after admitting they were not part of the conversation, Clinton Steyer and immediately jumps to the "but we need laws!" as a response. Note that this is the first thing I suggest:
need laws, education efforts and standards that reflect the realities of the 21st century in order to maximize opportunities and minimize risks for our children. It is only then that we can give them a protected childhood and healthy and adolescence they deserve.
've experienced this dozens of times. No, the Internet is not completely safe for children, but neither is walking down the street. In some cases, do not let your children walk the streets alone, but as they grow, they learn to have a minimum of resourcefulness, and have more power. Nothing special required that "child protection" laws. Seems clear that children need to learn some "Internet resourcefulness", but it should not require legislation. We have seen how "protect children" legislation has failed in a fierce.
For example, we have already COPPA, which by definition makes it very, very difficult for companies to provide services for children under the age of 13. But this artificial barrier means that parents are helping their children online. We do not know how this "protects" children. Do not keep them in line, but teach them that lying is a good idea. 
So, instead of rushing to regulate and act together "concerned" by the children - many of whom do a very good job on themselves to find ways to keep safe - maybe we should not try to exceptional cases and jump to the law, but what the response should be better taken into account reasonable point. You'll never let children do things stupid. east
